Man cave upgrades

Le Mans Master
Long story, but I cracked one of my rear wheels on my GS. I bought an aftermarket set to replace the OEM wheels. So I made a table for my man cave out of the black rear wheels. I am going to use the front wheels to use as ottomans for the chairs. I am having leather tops for the ottomans made to match the leather seats. The lamps is made from a harmonic balancer and a camshaft from an LS3.

Hey how wide is your garage? I have a 2 car and not sure if a 2nd vette will fit. I was curious what the measurements were so I could get an idea. Thanks!

Well 1st off, she refuses to learn and drive the manual. 2nd, she does not like how fast, low, and how you can feel the road. Oh and she hates the top down.
The wife has a semi permanent ban in the Corvette at this point and little man, my 6 year boy has 1st right of refusal. He even knows which channel Octane is on and will ask for Rock n Roll to be put on when we go fast. So I am good amigo.

The split unit heat pump is a very sensible solution indeed. Much simpler and more flexible than fuel based heating. What are the ratings and consumption on that unit ?
